Water Shrew busying themselves at Seaton Wetlands!

@Steve_Parrett @balders2 Surprised your elves don’t employ this tactic already?

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

Bloody Peruvians; coming over here, taking all our flag raising jobs.

Nice to see my first #WaspSpider for some time, this afternoon. Seaton Wetlands, Blackhole Marsh. @DevonWildlife @BritishSpiders @wildeastdevon

@ColytonWildlife This is just getting silly now…

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@AxeBirder Nice one! Had to turn up while I was away! 😳

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@LeonRice861481 It’s a spring tide Leon, the levels go up then and the lagoon needs it.

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@LeonRice861481 Wow, it was spring tides Leon, that means the lagoon fills.

As I’ve offered before when you’ve offered comment which is technically incorrect, introduce yourself and I’ll show you how this system works.

Thankyou overnight rain and south easterlies! This gorgeous pair of Curlew Sandpipers (male and female on size) are on Black Hole Marsh this morning, with 11 Dunlin. My earliest autumn record of the species here. Also Wigeon and juv Med Gull

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@AxeBirder We’ve had a fantastic year for them on Trinity Hill, but it doesn’t beat a churr in the garden!

@AxeBirder What a stonker!

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@CRTWalesandSW This is entirely the wrong time of year for hedge laying. Good intentions don’t make this activity any less imbecilic.

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@AxeBirder We had a four spot chaser at trinity hill egging last week. Perilously small pool, too!

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@AxeBirder @EcolaEvans @Natures_Voice @_BTO @DevonWildlife @wildeastdevon Awesome, that’s some certainty at least 👍🏻

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@AxeBirder Gorgeous photo Steve

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@ColytonWildlife Three legged stilt!

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@EcolaEvans @BigBreakers @mattkvesic I think that might be the colour cast from the dust chamber? Looks good for native for me

[James Chubb @TheTiercel]

@mattkvesic They’re quite passive (if you’ve not sucked them into a hoover) they look ferocious but there’s a certain self confidence in a black and yellow insect that big!
